Grok Bot gains users with new social feed feature

Grok Bot, a chatbot made by xAI, is attracting users who previously used OpenClaw, another AI chatbot.
Grok Bot now has a social feed where people can see bot interactions, though the text is hard for humans to read.
Hermes Desktop, a separate AI application, launched its own Bot mode to compete with Grok's offering.

How it was covered

Grok Bot is gaining traction among former OpenClaw users, with a dedicated social feed now available for bot interactions, though human readability is limited. Hermes Desktop followed suit by launching its own Bot mode to match Grok's user experience.
